After some cat naps on air planes and an awesome van ride to an awesome host church, we are in Seattle.
We didn't waste time. excited we put together bikes and then sat and hung out. I am very thankful for the non rushing atmosphere currently. I am very much feeling a bit on edge. And will be completely honest when I say I accidentally even grabbed my hip and slightly freaked out when I didn't feel the radio that has been glued there for the last two years.
It makes it more real to be sitting in a room with 12 bicycles. Yes there will be 11 of us beginning on Sunday, meeting up with 2 more along the Midwest. 13 all together. The number is smaller than what was announced. But my belief is that small packages hold big punches. It has already been made clear to me that this group has got major punch.
We have a training ride and pictures in Seattle on Saturday and we begin our trek through the Cascades on Sunday.
It's cold... Very cold.
My heart and soul are warm!
Daria,
ReplyDeleteDon't worry the need to know where the walkie talkie is goes away pretty quick. Not having enough keys on my belt is what through me when I first left ODE.
Prayin for you on your journey with God and on your trek.
